Psalms 147
1 Hallelujah! How good it is to sing praises to our God, how pleasant and lovely to praise Him!
Hvalite Gospoda, kajti dobro je peti hvalnice našemu Bogu, kajti to je prijetno in hvala je ljubka.
2 The LORD builds up Jerusalem; He gathers the exiles of Israel.
Gospod je zgradil Jeruzalem; skupaj zbira Izraelove pregnance.
3 He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
Ozdravlja potrte v srcu in povezuje njihove rane.
4 He determines the number of the stars; He calls them each by name.
Šteje število zvezd, vse jih kliče po njihovih imenih.
5 Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding has no limit.
Velik je naš Gospod in zelo močan, njegovo razumevanje je neskončno.
6 The LORD sustains the humble, but casts the wicked to the ground.
Gospod dviguje krotke; zlobne podira k tlom.
7 Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving; make music on the harp to our God,
Pojte Gospodu z zahvaljevanjem, našemu Bogu pojte hvalo na harfo,
8 who covers the sky with clouds, who prepares rain for the earth, who makes grass to grow on the hills.
ki nebo pokriva z oblaki, ki za zemljo pripravlja dež, ki daje travi, da raste po gorah.
9 He provides food for the animals, and for the young ravens when they call.
On daje živali njeno hrano in mladim krokarjem, ki kličejo.
10 He does not delight in the strength of the horse; He takes no pleasure in the legpower of the man.
Ne razveseljuje se v moči konja. Ne veseli se človeških nog.
11 The LORD is pleased with those who fear Him, who hope in His loving devotion.
Gospod se veseli tistih, ki se ga bojijo, tistih, ki upajo v njegovo usmiljenje.
12 Exalt the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise your God, O Zion!
Hvali Gospoda, oh Jeruzalem, hvali svojega Boga, oh Sion.
13 For He strengthens the bars of your gates and blesses the children within you.
Kajti utrjuje zapahe tvojih velikih vrat, tvoje otroke je blagoslovil znotraj tebe.
14 He makes peace at your borders; He fills you with the finest wheat.
Na tvojih mejah daje mir in te nasičuje z najodličnejšo pšenico.
15 He sends forth His command to the earth; His word runs swiftly.
Svojo zapoved pošilja na zemljo; njegova beseda teče zelo naglo.
16 He spreads the snow like wool; He scatters the frost like ashes;
Sneg daje kakor volno, slano razsiplje kakor pepel.
17 He casts forth His hail like pebbles. Who can withstand His icy blast?
Svoj led meče kakor koščke; kdo lahko obstane pred njegovim mrazom?
18 He sends forth His word and melts them; He unleashes His winds, and the waters flow.
Razpošilja svojo besedo in jih topi; svojemu vetru povzroča, da piha in vodam, [da] tečejo.
19 He declares His word to Jacob, His statutes and judgments to Israel.
Svojo besedo kaže Jakobu, svoje zakone in svoje sodbe Izraelu.
20 He has done this for no other nation; they do not know His judgments. Hallelujah!
Z nobenim narodom ni tako postopal in glede njegovih sodb, jih oni niso spoznali. Hvalite Gospoda.
